Abstract
A new series of mixed-anion alkali rare earth silicate fluorides with composition Rb2Ln[Si2O6]F (Ln = Y, Eu-Lu) has been synthesized via an alkali chloride/fluoride eutectic flux synthetic route. All synthesized compositions crystallize in the tetragonal space group P42/mnm with a 3D framework consisting of LnO4F2 octahedra, tetrasilicate rings, and 1D channels containing alkali metals. A combination of powder X-ray diffraction, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and luminescence emission spectroscopy was performed to characterize the reaction products. In addition, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were utilized to calculate the 0 K formation enthalpies of the synthesized phases and of hypothetical trivalent actinide analogues to probe the likelihood of the successful synthesis of such trivalent transuranic containing phases, specifically Am and Cm, in the future.

Abstract
A new series of Ba2RE2Ge4O13 (RE = Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy) germanates and Ba2Gd2-xEuxGe4O13 (x = 0.1-0.8) solid solutions have been synthesized using the solid-state reaction technique and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. All compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c, Z = 4. The crystal lattice consists of RE2O12 dimers, zigzag C2-symmetric [Ge4O13]10- tetramers, and ten-coordinated Ba atoms located in voids between polyhedra. The density-functional theory (DFT) calculations performed on a rich set of Ba2RE2Ge4O13 compounds have confirmed the high thermodynamic stability of monoclinic modification. Under ultraviolet (UV) light excitation Ba2Gd2-xEuxGe4O13 phosphors exhibit an orange-red emission corresponding to the characteristic f-f transitions in Eu3+ ions. The highest intensity of lines at 580 nm (5D0→7F0), 582-602 nm (5D0→7F1), 602-640 nm (5D0→7F2), 648-660 nm (5D0→7F3), and 680-715 nm (5D0→7F4) is observed for the samples with x = 0.4-0.6. The possibility of their application has been assessed by studying their color characteristics, quantum efficiency, and thermal stability. The obtained data indicate that Ba2Gd2-xEuxGe4O13 solids can be considered as promising materials for UV-excited phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (LEDs) if an aluminum nitride substrate (λex = 255 nm) is used as a semiconductor chip.

Abstract
This work reports the realization of Gd3+ persistent luminescence in the narrowband ultraviolet-B (NB-UVB; 310-313 nm) through persistent energy transfer from a sensitizer of Pr3+, Pb2+ or Bi3+. We propose a general design concept to develop Gd3+-activated NB-UVB persistent phosphors from Pr3+-, Pb2+- or Bi3+-activated ultraviolet-C (200-280 nm) or ultraviolet-B (280-315 nm) persistent phosphors, leading to the discovery of ten Gd3+ NB-UVB persistent phosphors such as Sr3Gd2Si6O18:Pr3+, Sr3Gd2Si6O18:Pb2+ and Y2GdAl2Ga3O12:Bi3+ as well as five ultraviolet-B persistent phosphors such as Y3Al2Ga3O12:Pr3+, Sr3Y2Si6O18:Pb2+ and Y3Al2Ga3O12:Bi3+. The persistent energy transfer from the sensitizers to Gd3+ is very efficient and the Gd3+ NB-UVB afterglow can last for more than 10 hours. This study expands the persistent luminescence research to the NB-UVB as well as the broader ultraviolet-B spectral regions. The NB-UVB persistent phosphors may act as self-sustained glowing NB-UVB radiation sources for dermatological therapy.

Abstract
Visible-light and infrared-light persistent phosphors are extensively studied and are being used as self-sustained glowing tags in darkness. In contrast, persistent phosphors for higher-energy, solar-blind ultraviolet-C wavelengths (200-280 nm) are lacking. Also, persistent tags working in bright environments are not available. Here we report five types of Pr3+-doped silicates (melilite, cyclosilicate, silicate garnet, oxyorthosilicate, and orthosilicate) ultraviolet-C persistent phosphors that can act as self-sustained glowing tags in bright environments. These ultraviolet-C persistent phosphors can be effectively charged by a standard 254 nm lamp and emit intense, long-lasting afterglow at 265-270 nm, which can be clearly monitored and imaged by a corona camera in daylight and room light. Besides thermal-stimulation, in bright environments, photo-stimulation also contributes to the afterglow emission and its contribution can be dominant when ambient light is strong. This study expands persistent luminescence research to the ultraviolet-C wavelengths and brings persistent luminescence applications to light.
